Ok Guys. Fusion Imports has agreed to make a body kit for either the 1G or the 2G Eclipse. On the poll I posted a bit ago, there was slightly more interest for the 1G. They said they could make a kit for each if we found enough people interested.
This new thread is to put together a group buy project for a new body kit for the 1G. Here is the information I have:
Unfortunetly, we are not prototyping new style kits, but we do have the facilities to take a currently existing style of kit and remake it to fit a different car. Some of the easiest style of kits to remake are: Black Widow, Buddy Club, Invader, Extreme, R33, and Octane, but virtually any style kit that is available on the market can be an option.
The cost would be as follows: 11-14 kits $649 each (plus shipping); 15-19 kits $599 each; 20-25 kits $550 each, 26+ kits $499 each. Each member of the group buy will have to agree to a $100 non-refundable down payment on their kit so we are guaranteed they will order once production is finished. Complete time for the first kit to be produced is 4-6 weeks.
The kit will be made of high-quality, lightweight fiberglass. The quality and fitment will be good, but as with all fiberglass kits, slight modification may be needed for perfect fitment. You can view our disclaimer at: http://www.fusionimports.com/terms.html.
A donor car will be needed for the first week or two of the production process to ensure good fitment. The car will need to be around the Los Angeles area, and the owner will receive a free body kit. Once the minimum number of buyers has been achieved, the first person to send in their $100 down payment will receive a $50 discount off their kit.
So, let's get this project rolling. Throw out body kit styles you have seen on the market (cannot be made by companies that patent their kit designs: Wings West, Kaminari, etc.) that would look good on the 1G. I'm guessing something not to ricey, just something subtle that goes with the lines of the car.
